Where do you buy struts?

Where the hell do we buy struts for this damn car? I see autozone has Gabriel struts or something for 150 each. I need new suspension BADLY.

Bump. I just got bumped down after 15 seconds.

Subaru ones are about $100 a set give or take from www.newsubaru.com, www.1stsubaru.com or www.subaruparts.com

Subaru in their idiot wisdom stores them on their side so they have a strong likely hood of failure (almost always within a few 1000 miles) but they're still under warranty. Doesn't help if you're paying labor though.

For cheap - Subaru

For reliability - Koni (inserts)

For lots of money - DMS

I wouldn't say Koni's are reliable esp as the SVX ages. I've seen quite a few SVXs with broken perches. I wouldn't go that route for reliablity. Besides, they aren't real good struts to begin with considering the price.

I think we would both agree that they are more reliable than the "new" OEM's.

I wouldn't say that in the least, esp when put in a 15 year old perch from the northeast and when you take price into account.
